Denison council adopts Ordinance #1584, rezoning parcels to R5 high-density multi-family
Summary
Ordinance #1584 was adopted unanimously to change specified parcels from Agriculture to R5 (Multi-Family Residential High Density); the council waived the second and third readings and adopted the ordinance.
The Denison City Council adopted Ordinance #1584 on May 19, 2026, amending the city’s zoning map to reclassify specified parcels from Agriculture to R5, Multi-Family Residential High Density.
On motions by Mayor Pro-Tem John Granzen and a second by Council member Zupp-Smith, the council waived the second and third readings and voted to adopt Ordinance #1584 unanimously. The ordinance changes the zoning classification for parcels located within the corporate limits of the City of Denison from Ag to R5.
Why it matters: Rezoning to a high-density residential designation allows multi-family development under R5 rules; the council’s action moves the parcels into a zoning class that permits higher-density housing and related development standards under city code.
Next steps: Adoption takes effect per city ordinance procedures; staff will implement map changes and notify property owners as required by city process.
